How dare you. Don’t make me apologize in your general direction with a flaming moose.

Right eh?
For the goodness of Saint Moose can we even get a break in this gosh forsaken tundra?
Pardon my language. I’m sorry.

The Battle.net balance caps take currency exchange into consideration, but the USD → CAD exchange isnt explicitly stated anywhere.
I did find this article - Local Currency Update Coming to Blizzard Battle.net® in Canada, Japan, and New Zealand — All News — Blizzard News - which states ‘We will use the conversion rate provided by one of the major exchanges on the day we make the transition.’
As currency exchange rates fluctuate, I doubt they set it once and use it in perpetuity, so I suspect they use a daily exchange rate - but from which exchange? The Bank of Canada rate today is 1.38, so $110 USD should be $151.80 CAD, which is JUST over the $149.16 CAD needed for the Bruto, after tax.

This is my kind of Canadian right here. You send that apology to me with a flaming Moose and I will accept it with a lightning bolt Eagle.
Then we kith.
Suspecting this is less about conversion rates and more about his account. $110 is a pretty specific number, and there’s a support article that references it.
His pet collection screen isn’t showing a corehound pup as being collected… Which suggests he has no authenticator. Possible though he’s posting from a different account that I can’t see.
I could be wrong, but given these two details, it’s not an unreasonable starting point to consider.

It’s science.
This is why this mount is so stupid.
If it were smaller, I’d buy like a dozen and smuggle them up to Canada in my YT-1600. But they’re to insanely big to put in anything else.

$110 USD is the Battle.net balance cap without an authenticator, so I’m 99.9% certain that OP doesnt have an authenticator.
$110 USD cap should be $151.80 CAD cap, again, JUST enough to cover the bruto + tax. OP will need to be creative, though, to land right there… I suggest they start playing Diablo: Immortal: eternal orbs can be purchased in very small amounts, so they can spend the balance down to $129 CAD, then add the last token to bring it to $151 CAD.

If Sumwun is elected soon he is without a doubt going to make it punishable by life as a babysitter if you are caught smuggling brutosaurs into Canadistan.

I mean… are the lightning bolts necessary? The moose is just going to apologize and suggest a communal meeting involving timbits at the nearest tim hortons, probably.

I can do away with the lightning bolts.
About that kith though?
You have to wait for the Canada-specific model, the Brute-eh-saur.

Hey man I love my Northern Bros. I’m not that far south of most of you being a Dakota boy myself right now.
I am only trying to joke with you.
Woah, one of my toons has almost the same name as you, its a small world xD
(My alt is Prysmatix)
I had to pay $138, another guy said he paid $147 different province so yes there are taxes.

Driven through a few US states… Not the Dakotas though. You’re a fair bit south of Sask and Manitoba (my condolences), but it’s Montana, Idaho, and Utah that are varying amounts of south of me (alberta) on this last trip that eventually wound up in vegas.
Chicago was a lot of fun in the past… Boston as well. Learned how not to shoot a shotgun.
Might have to do another road trip or vacation at some point and visit some of the others.
Edit: And … I’ve heard of the concept of kith and kin. Kith used as a verb… If I google this, how much am I going to regret it?

You have to pay carbon tax on the mount; so you may need an 8th.
